“Seth material” search engine (Jane Roberts)

(At supper time this evening I voiced my opinion of the tactics of Jane’s publisher, Frederick Fell, in no uncertain terms, with the rather obvious implication that Seth could comment upon the situation should he care to.

(I planned no envelope test for this session, thinking that the test material on the Gallaghers in Puerto Rico, and on Dr. Instream, would be enough for one session. I was more interested at the moment in having Seth finish his analysis of Jane’s two dreams, which he began last session, and made it a point to say so just before the session tonight.

(We have not heard from the Gallaghers, incidentally, and do not expect to. The four of us agreed not to exchange mail, leaving any communications up to Seth while Bill and Peggy are on vacation.

(“Good evening, Seth.”)

(Philip is John Bradley’s entity name, according to Seth.)

(While giving the data involving the car at the beginning of the test, Jane said she had a feeling of unsureness at to the location of the car. She didn’t know whether it was at Dr. Instream’s office or at his home. She also didn’t know whether the unsureness referred to Seth or herself.

(This surprised me. Seth here referred to two rather brief but vivid and colorful dreams I had written down just before tonight’s session began. Jane came back to the studio just as I finished. I told her I was noting a couple of dreams down, but did not describe them to her since time was getting short.

(During our daily life we do not take the time to describe in detail each dream we have to the other, unless obvious connections arise in future events, or the dream happens to be unusually vivid in some way. My two short dreams mentioned above were a little more vivid than usual, but otherwise not unusual, I thought. I now tried to lead Seth on.

(On the spur of the moment I began to concentrate on having Seth tell me more about this man. I was not sure whether he referred to this man as being part of my dreams, of whether he meant this unseen man existed physically.

(At break I did not tell Jane anything about the contents of either dream. I thought that what Seth had said so far was related to the dreams in most cases, without being very specific, and was especially interested in his remarks about the intensity of color; this is true of the second dream especially. I also thought the material on my being close to achieving a goal good, in that I have had definite feelings along this line lately. Nor had I said anything to Jane about this; it is my habit to see how things work out instead of making predictions.

(I did mention to Jane at break that I was concentrating on a question. I then added another question, I told her, but said no more other than that. I wondered whether Seth could answer the two questions. The second question was merely whether Seth could tell us anything about the blue car featured in the second dream.

(Jane said she wished Seth had not taken a break, but had continued with the dream material. I did not know whether I had said too much myself or not. Jane resumed in the same quiet manner, with her eyes closed, at 10:44.)

(Break at 10:53. Jane was dissociated as usual. Her eyes had remained closed, her voice quiet. She said Seth’s admonishment to me hadn’t bothered her. Neither of my mental questions had been answered.

(“Good night, Seth.”

(Jane was very curious as to what new abilities lay in store for her, especially the one that Seth said she would shortly discover. We speculated that Seth’s method of interpreting my dreams in this session might have something to do with it.)
